Bull's Eye On Bull Shit

John McCain cites the death of Neda as a criticism of the Obama administration's handling of the situation in Iran. This is, of course, from the guy famous for singing "Bomb Iran" to an old Regents song, which, if we had done that, would have likely killed a lot more Neda's than the one allegedly shot by government forces during protests this past weekend.
What you won't hear a thing about from Flak Jacket Johnny is how US forces killed two protesters in Iraq.(They were demanding back wages that likely ended up in Dick Cheney's bank account.) In fact, the US has been killing protesters in Iraq and John McCain has stood silent, even supporting the war.
No, McCain doesn't mind US soldiers killing protesters in Iraq because it's all in the name of spreading democracy, or, the US equivalent. Killing protesters in Iran is one less person who gets to die at the barrel of an M-16 (or under the fallout of a depleted uranium bunker buster bomb) therefore they are not collateral damage to the cause of a neocon wetdream: worldwide capitalist corpocracy masquerading as democracy.

Welcome To The Club!!!

So Arianna Huffington says that John McCain told her he didn't vote for George Bush in 2000. Guess what? A lot of people didn't. In fact, if not for widespread voter fraud, Bush wouldn't have "won" the election.
It's understandable how McCain wouldn't vote for Bush. After all Karl Rove and the Bush campaign had a number of smears against McCain.
My personal favorite?
“McCain may be unstable as a result of being tortured while a prisoner of war in North Vietnam.”

This from the people who have made torture the new American way.
Of course, the point of the article at HuffPo is that the McCain who couldn't stomach voting for Bush in 2000 is now embracing him (even though his approval numbers are at an all time low) so desperate is he to become president. Just another example of Flapjack Johnny flipping once again.
